"I found in myself, and still find, an instinct toward a higher spiritual life and another toward a primitive and a savage one.
I reverence them both. I love the wild not less than the good."
Henry David Thoreau

Welcome to Michael Darigan's website. I am still in the progress of chocking this site full of stories and updates on what I am currently up to. Feel free to check out the pictures and read to learn a little bit more about me, what I write, why I write and my upcoming book, A Higher Ed, The Lost e-mails of a Generation.
Enjoy!
Since graduating from College in 1996 (and a few years even before that), Michael Darigan has been traveling the world and writing his daily impressions, short stories and essays that include a wide range of subjects, from traveling, living an artist's life, not conforming to the status quo and trying to live a fully present life free of shame, guilt or outside pressure. Through a rigorous if not often drunken commitment to living an exciting and write-worthy life, Michael developed a unique voice and style that was not confined or contorted by any compulsion to publish. Consequently, his writing is personable, lyrical, intimate and full of the richness and passion that a true love of writing conveys; Michael wanted to explore the world and himself in the process and traveling and writing for over ten years has enabled him to become the person he wanted to be, and a pretty damn good writer. So now he is ready to publish his works, contribute to others as so many authors have contributed to his life, in a positive and inspiring manner.
